The Failford Inn, Failford

Been in three or so times. Easily the best kept real ale I've had in a pub. Honestly, it's that good. Only �3-60 return on the #43(or is it 34??) bus from Ayr bus station. Popped in over the easter weekend with my better half and some chums. Luckily there was a 'Fullers' weekend on( my fav brewery, along with Kelburn ;-) ) The Chiswick Bitter was marv. At 3.5% an ideal 'all day drinking' beer. London Pride(all time classic & one that I start my palate out on at beer feschts !!). the 3rd beer was ESB. at over 5% a tad stong for me but nice none the less. To whoever looks after the beer....stand up and take a bow. Very well done. Perfect condition. If only all pubs kept their beer like so. If you're a beer nut like me, give this place a shot, you won't regret it.
I've had food a couple of times and it was excellent with no complaints regarding quallity or quantity. The King Prawns( not shelled, mmmmm ) with a lemony(?)sauce were esp nice.
